About location

Črna na Koroškem lies along the upper Meža Valley, where wooded slopes of the Karawanks rise towards the Austrian border. This small Koroška settlement stands in Slovenia’s northern mountain country, with Peca, a 2,125-metre summit shared with Austria, among the defining peaks of the surrounding range. The upper Meža Valley was long shaped by forestry and the lead-and-zinc mining tradition of nearby Mežica; its former mine is now part of the Underground Peca visitor route. Črna is surrounded by dispersed farms, forests and mountain roads linking communities beneath high ridges. Its local character belongs to Koroška, a borderland region with enduring connections across the Alps.
